brett "dreamboat" jackson
-
have i mentioned that i love Brett Jackson -
recall, he had 6 BB in his first 72 games (312 PA) do not miss Rudy
-
6 BB in 5-1/3, this is Theo's offense, wearing out pitchers without remorse
-
how did Vitters not score on that?
-
and then that happened
-
Brewers kind of bailed out Castro on that triple would have liked to see Jackson against Marcum, he's been really strong against changeups edit: nevermind the jesus is in left so i am content
-
he's hit a lot of IF flies, which always obviously suppresses babip; fwiw, his xBABIP is .284 for the year his .286/.420/.464 (.333 babip) line for August is quite a sight to behold, namely that 13-to-10 BB:K rate i'm also a big, big fan of his defense at 3rd
-
they're likely to pick up rivals #1 RB Derrick Green too
-
1.2 fWAR, in 140 PA...that's a 5.6 WAR full-season pace

Brenly not returning for 2013 (Jim Deshaies hired pg 14)

Rod Allen is as good as it gets for color guys -
that's rich, this coming from the guy that cited MothaFucka Jones
-
"probably"? and small correction, he'd place worst amongst qualifiers...vitters for example actually has a worse contact rate
-
like when i pointed out his league-worst contact rate (a few hours ago)
-
Stephen J. Nesbitt @stephenjnesbitt To be clear, Fitzgerald Toussaint being listed as the starting running back right now means absolutely nothing. Don't read into it yet.
-
irrelevant, dude
-
Brett Jackson is a wash-out who can't hit. It'll take a lot to change my mind on that one. huh, i thought for sure his .263/.440/.684 week would have blown the weather vane of your tenuous opinions in the complete other direction
-
Michael Rothstein @mikerothstein Hoke said no decision has been made on Toussaint or Clark.
-
Apparently smarter than the owner that hired him. The owner fell for a guy that talked about sports (like posters) as opposed to someone who actually had experience in coaching, scouting, managing, and player development. wow, this is actually an argument that you are making.
-
one more thing: Jackson's plate discipline has been other-worldly to this point amongst qualified hitters, only Albert Callaspo and Carlos Santana have offered at fewer pitches out of the zone (full list) than his 20.6% figure, but that isn't really passivity at all, since he's swung at pitches within the zone at an extremely high rate (71.1%) no other player who has swung at less than 25% of pitches outside the strike zone has also swung at more than 70% of pitches in the zone; basically, he's doing everything right, but making contact when he swings (74.4% zone-contact, which would place worst in baseball)...an obvious caveat is SSS, but he's not being overmatched in terms of pitch recognition right now so, if his mechanics are screwed up and somewhat correctable, he can surely be a MLB-caliber player offensively to me, this is the new front office's first big litmus test in player development and i can't wait to see how it turns out

AMEN to that. The very fact that Zoolander there is agreeing with you logically should tell you something. a model idiot
